Day 28

I know...I know, I said I was going to finish up this sketch project with the "Many vs. Few" series but I'll tell ya, today I wasn't feeling inspired in that way. I really had a want to do a mixed media piece. So I pulled out the gouache, watercolor pencils, pastels, and charcoal and went to work.

Endangered this baby blue jay is not, but the ominous caption read, "This baby blue jay may not live to see a second summer." Geez, I hope this little guy didn't hear that.

Day 7: Roseate Spoonbill, 12x9"

Roseate Spoonbill, you are one interesting looking dude. Their deep pink coloring is similar to a flamingo. They use their unusual beak to feed on crustaceans by swinging it from side to side as it steadily walks through the water.

Project IV Day 25: Hoatzin Nestling

They are clumsy in flight and use these claws to climb about in their native swamps of Venezuela and Guyana. Once they reach adulthood, they those their claws. Dinosaur times-style.
